Cub Scout Nutcracker Ornament

My son loves nutcrackers and when I found these little guys at the Dollar Store in packs of two I couldn't resist. 

When I got home I immediately pulled off the white hair and beard along with the glue.  It came off easily.  I then decided to take a before photo. 

Steps to make a cub scout

* Remove hair and beard

*Remove painted on mustache (I scratched it off with a screwdriver)

* touch up cheeks with craft paint

*Paint pants green *Paint shirt solid blue

*Paint patches, beads, hat logo, scarf

I am super excited to give these to my cub scouts for Christmas.  I hope they enjoy them as much as my son (and daughter)

 

DIY Doll Sled

Making a doll sled is super easy.  Take either a plastic plate or Frisbee, drill a total of four holes, two holes per side for rope/string to thread through for handles.  Can also drill a hole on the front and add a rope for a tow rope.  Fun for winter sledding.
